theory: a lot of Nintendo's choices just seem political. like if there's something Pac-Man, Mega Man, and Sonic all have in common it's their style. they're all family friendly series that fit well with Nintendo's primary model. Sega had (has?) a Sonic exclusivity contract with Nintendo and regularly appears in crossovers because Sonic is very compatible (regardless of how tacky it may be)
like the Wii U and 3DS are mostly powered by first party titles, as was the Wii. a few good third parties, but not enough. it was their weakness. Pac-Man and Mega Man both have fairly cartoon worlds similar to Nintendo's, and im sure that Nintendo's trying to woo more AAA third parties over
i mean maybe im getting my hopes up but since Melee we've seen Fire Emblem become a thing in America and since Brawl we've seen a Kid Icarus reboot. since this latest smash we've seen newcomer Shulk in a Xenoblade Chronicles sequel so im really hoping we get a new Nintendo-type Mega Man or Pac-Man
or at least a Duck Hunt come on Nintendo please
